I very rarely hear Cows say that, it's certainly not "most". As for the poll, I don't have one.

By a fairly large margin, I game primarily on the PC, but I own both a PS3 and high-spec gaming rig. So count me in if you like ;)

i do.

however i do consider myself a PC owner who also owns a PS3 rather than the other way around (PC always takes priority in multiplat games for me) .

also TC, id advise adding a "dont have a gaming PC" or "dont use my PC for gaming" option to the poll.

While some gamers own both a PS3 and gaming rig will prefer buying the PC version of a 360 game (instead of buying a 360), most cows just use the excuse of a 360/PC title being multiplat to try and claim ownage. The majority of cows only have a PS3 and nothing else and need a reason to justify why their console is not the industry goto system for software this gen.

*Note the difference between a gamer and cow before you start flaming*

Game On...

I have a PS3 and a gaming PC from Dell that is from 2006. I plan on building my own soon, but this computer is good because the only PC game that interests coming up is Left 4 Dead. Other than that Killzone, Resistance, RE5, UFC 2009, and other games will keep me occupied.

Why even bother with this? Most people have a PC and most 360/PC games end up coming to the PS3 later anyways. I mean heck, I know most fanboys don't own an HDTV but that doesnt stop them from comparing the pics of textures of a game that they know arent noticable on their 20in SDTV.

If its multiplat its multiplat.

well let me resort to the old saying of graphics don't make a game, as long as it still playable, the gameplay is there right?

I don't. I probably wouldn't bother investing in one either. I prefer console gaming.

My PC is mid-range. It will play just about anything, but not maxed out. I'm due for an upgrade in a little while, was going to due it last month, but with so much coming out for PS3 I figured I might as well wait awhile longer until I really need to.

I'm not sure mine is still high end after a year but i have :

Quad core Q6600 , 4 Gig Ram, 8800 GTX 756 MB , 150 gig raptor , 500 gig samsung .

But i also own a 360 and Wii .

Does that make me a PC owning PS3 gamer or a 360 owning PC gamer that owns a PS3 and plays Wii or whatever .

I feel like a Lemming though , i still like my 360 best !

Right here. It's awesome, no RROD for me either. I just only have to wait for GeOW2, but it run and play better anyway. Plus R2 is just great.

It is the most optimal combo for gaming this gen, especially if you dont mind missing out on 1st party Nintendo games.

Here's my problem... I have a PS3, and I had a gaming rig. The reason I say I had a gaming rig is because it's now obselete? I mean I could still probably play a lot of games with standard settings but when I bought the parts, it was to play games at max settings. Now it's just turned into my rig for browsing and office applications.

A thread created so cows can lie about what they have? Most people do not have gaming rigs capable of all games for those who do like myself, we win with every game released!

Right here. I would say its high end, its about a step down from high end, an 8 series card. But i havent been using it much for gaming lately, way to many good ps3 games to play, socom, lbp, resistance 2 etc. Left 4 dead is the only game i think im getting for PC in the next few months.

I have a high end gaming rig, and that's my primary gaming device. I also have a PS3, but I don't play it much.

Does that count?

"Most"?.......Until you can play games in Microsoft word I will not need to game on a PC!
